Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together the dry mustard powder, white vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar until well combined. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 hrs

Simmer the mixture over very low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching, for 3 hours. The mixture will thicken slightly and the flavors will meld together beautifully. (180 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Gradually whisk in the lightly beaten egg yolks, ensuring they are fully incorporated. (2 minutes)

04

Step
6 mins

Return the saucepan to low heat and stir constantly until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency, similar to a creamy sauce. Be careful not to overheat the mixture, as the egg yolks can scramble. (5-7 minutes)

05

Step
0 mins

Pour the hot mustard into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace. Seal the jars immediately.

06

Step
0 mins

Allow the jars to cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating. The mustard's flavor will continue to develop as it chills.

For a smoother mustard, consider using a blender or immersion blender to process the mixture after cooking.
Experiment with different vinegars (apple cider vinegar, red wine vinegar) for unique flavor profiles.
Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
Store the homemade mustard in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
